OM videographers Carsten Best and David Doughty capture stories from around the world. Their travels have given them their own stories of what it's like to film in varying conditions, in different cultures. Here's David's story of their time in Haiti, not long after the devastating earthquake. David wrote:

"As soon as Carsten and I landed in Haiti, we got picked up and immediately started shooting video while we were driving through the heart of Port au Prince. The devastation is.....hard to put into words. We quickly (after sitting in traffic for 2 hours) checked into our hotel room then went to an orphanage to start our interviews. [One girl] found the orphanage during a prayer meeting, and that is where she met Jesus. She then realized there was more to life than living for yourself. What mattered then, doesn't matter now.

"After that, we went to a church that is mostly standing, though all the buildings around it have collapsed. A little girl who lived next door lost both her parents and we interviewed the aunt who is now taking care of her. This place was a lot harder to be at because you are standing on the roof of a three story building when you get out of the car. Some people have lost their minds, and then you turn around and you have people bathing in the streets out of a bucket. Then you walk into the church and six girls gather around a mic and are singing praises to the Lord as the worship band practices with various instruments. There is such a stark contrast of beauty and death. It's the ultimate extreme that I will never forget."

David and Carsten are on staff with OM USA, but they have partnered with short-term videographers and photographers, and you could be one of them. Talk to a Missions Coach for more information. See the Haiti video they produced below.
